The Forever King
I have just this moment finished reading 'The Forever King' and
sat down to do a websearch to find you. This book is amazing. The writing
is wonderful, the characters believable and vibrant of spirit, and the
premise soul soothing. Especially now, as we here in the USA live through
the myriad of feelings that the recent attacks and the resultant deaths
have forced us to explore, your book leaves one with a sense of hope for
the future and for mankind as a whole. Thank you, Ms. Cochran. I shall
search out others of your books to enjoy and explore as well. We need more
voices and imaginations like yours in the world, and the opportunity to
experience them.

The Forever King
Just finished the Broken Sword and found your website to see if
there would be a third book, yeah there will! I have been interested in
Arthurian legend for some time, and read a great deal of the history on
it, (I actually tried to read Le Morte D'Artur in the original Middle English!)
and I was hooked by your interesting take on the legend of Arthur and the
Holy Grail, 4 stars for originality.
On a side note, I write some myself and read your notes section
and can really relate to your claim to having to write alot on a character
to flesh it out, and then pare down the work. I find a 4 page dissertation
becomes 20 just to get the four that make my statement clear! My few short
stories seem to have this same life of their own, starting as much longer
narratives. Do you suppose this is a lifelong affliction?
Waiting patiently for book 3, Michelle

General Nonsensical Ramblings...
*cracks fingers..* I recently read 'The Forever King'...for the
third time...I absolutely love that story. I was tickled blue (i like blue
better than pink, you see) that is has sequels and mayhaps will be a movie...Anyway,
I love the book, one of my favorites and much more exciting than that La'mor
de Arthur (alas, spelling illudes me..*wince*) I cannot wait to get 'The
Broken Sword'. But everyone has complimented your books...*grin* I wanted
to say something else.
The advice you gave in your Author's Notes really hit hard. When
you said "If you can write it badly, you can fix it. If you insist on only
writing wonderfully, it'll never get done." I was dumbfounded. I enjoy
writing sci-fi and fantasy, but I never belived that any of it was worth
writing because I wasn't good at it. I'm just glad you took the time to
write those few sentences, because I think that if I remember them, I might
have a better time at this insane thing called writing

sequel
HI,
Did you and Warren Murphy ever write a subsequent sequel to Grandmaster
(after High Priest)? There was a suggestion that another was coming in
the closing pages of High Priest, but I have never come across it. Both
books were extraordinary and have lingered in my mind all of these years.
If there is a sequel please let me know and if not, PLEASE WRITE ONE!!!

Inspired fan
I have been an ardent fan since the release of “Grandmaster”, so
I was thrilled to find your hyper link on the Pennwriters, Inc site. Four
years ago, when I decided to start writing, I faced the decision - What
type of book do I want to write? My answer was to try and emulate an author
whose works I have enjoyed and whose stories live in my memory. I actually
used the books co-authored by you and your husband as a tutorial on how
to write, pace, develop characters, handle dialogue, and work memorable,
non-irritating flashbacks into the storyline. Time will tell if I was a
good student and succeeded. I'm currently trying to market the resulting
novel.
I just wanted to let you know that you have been an inspiration
to this newbie author. Many thanks for all the hours of enjoyment your
books have provided.

still my favorite book
I received "The Forever King" as a gift all the
way back in 1992. I almost didn't read it
because I wasn't into Arthurian legend at the
time, but I was so glad that I did. The book is
in horrible shape from being read so many
times. I practically know it by heart. I bought
The Broken Sword as soon as I saw it had
come out in paperback, and I am anxiously
awaiting the third. Please write quickly so your
multitudes of readers can finally know what's
going to happen!
I'm somewhat of a writer myself, and I hope
that you'd be pleased to know that your book is
one of the select few that truly inspire me.
Thank you so much. And write quickly, please!

The Forever King, The Broken Sword, and World Without End. Each one I couldn't
set down. I'm looking really hard for Grandmasters, but haven't gotten
my hands on a copy yet. In fact, Barnes and Noble was supposed to get me
a copy of it today, but instead they gave me a book called "granmasters
of caprentry." Talk about a let down! Oh well. My post is going to be too

Let me say that somehow fate made it that I was to watch a movie
about none other than king arthur and miracleously find the "The Broken
Sword" in the library the next day. I was hooked. Once I discovered that
there was a first book I went on a search rampage for it! You and Warren
Murphy were able to take a numerously written legend and amazingly bring
it to life. Obviously I enjoyed both these series immensly and I do pray
you will continue writing about Arthur and his knights. I, like the rest
am patiently waiting and hoping for another adventure with arthur to embark
on in our very own home:)

You're the author of such a great novel?
Two years ago I bought this book for about $1.00 at the dollar store,
because it might've been a little old. I started reading it, and was really
bored with it. Then after a couple of years, I started reading it again,
and I found it fantastic! I'm still reading it also. The book was called
"Death Right", and I LOVE it. This novel is the best since I read Christopher
Pike's "The Last Vampire" novels. I didn't think any author could be better
than him, but I was wrong. I love Dev Stryker! ^_^
I had no idea that Dev Stryker was a female! I thought she was a
guy all this time! >_<'
Well I just wanna say that I love this novel I'm reading, and hope
to read other novels by her! ^_~

Dear Molly, My best guess is that Debbie and I saw you and Warren
about 11 years ago. If I'm close, Dev should be about 15? Wow! It's like
I blinked and became eligible for Modern Maturity Magazine. I have continued
to write despite Warren's analysis, "You're good with the words but not
that good!" Anyway, recently I came across some of my early attempts toward
literary fame that I sent to you and Warren. After review, his analysis
was probably correct; however, any Irishman worth his salt listens only
to is own muse. Toward that end, I am finishing my first book and I remember
something you said to me a long time ago, "Andy McCabe, that's a nice name
for an author!" Thanks for the encouragement! My best to you both. From
